Intermediate Pottery with Kevin Rodrigue

Intermediate Wheel Throwing: Morning Studio Session
5 week class, Thursdays, 8:00–10:30 AM  16+

Ready to level up your pottery game? This 5-week intermediate morning class is perfect for potters who feel comfortable on the wheel and are excited to stretch their skills into new and ambitious territory. Each week focuses on a new form or technique, with plenty of time for demos, practice, and personalized guidance.

Over the 5 weeks, we will explore:

• Lidded vessels: creating clean, confident galleries and well-fitting lids
• Pouring vessels: pitchers, spouts, and forms that pour beautifully
• Throwing larger: strategies for scaling up your forms with control
• Major alterations: pushing, cutting, reshaping, and sculptural play
• Advanced handles: stronger pulls, better attachments, and more expressive design
• Decorating and surface work: textures, slip play, and thoughtful finishing touches

This class is all about building skills, refining technique, and encouraging bold exploration. If you are ready to push past your comfort zone, try more complex forms, and gain confidence in your creative voice, this 5-week intensive is your next step.

Prerequisites: Completion of 2 rounds beginner pottery and confidence in throwing cylinders, bowls, and plates.
